Jack Smith Ends DC Grand Jury Investigating Trump’s Classified Docs Case After Judge Cannon Rebukes Him for Operating ‘Out-of-District’ Secret Grand Jury
Gateway Pundit ^

Posted on 08/23/2023 10:32:34 AM PDT by Tench_Coxe

Special Counsel Jack Smith in a court filing on Tuesday revealed the DC grand jury hearing evidence in Trump’s classified documents case has ended.

Jack Smith used a DC grand jury – and a radical Marxist Obama-appointed DC judge (Beryl Howell) in the classified docs case before quietly roving down to Florida to file the charges.

(snip)

Judge Cannon demanded Jack Smith explain “the legal propriety of using an out-of-district grand jury proceeding to continue to investigate” Trump and his associates.

It is against the DOJ rules for prosecutors to present a case outside of the district where the crimes took place.

My whole family lives in Ft Pierce, are “Biden” voters and see what is going on. They are going out of their way to vote Trump. They see what happened with Biden. They dont trust anybody right now and they are ALL mad as hell. Doesn’t hurt to have me whispering in my sisters ear about all the shenanigans ongoing.

Have they lived here long? I grew up in St. Lucie County and my late husband grew up in Fort Pierce. It has grown but in many ways is still a small town.

I was in Port St. Lucie a few months ago, that place has really grown, since I lived in Florida.

Yes it has. I was working for the city during the boom back in the 90’s. My mom bought into the GDC buy lot for $100.00 down $10.00 a month deal back in the early 70’s. Now lots go for what used to get you a house.

If what he did was illegal, then why doesn’t the Judge throw it out and start from scratch with Grand Jury in Florida.

Isn’t it unconstitutional to use a jury outside of the district where a crime took place? Tried by a jury of peers in “state AND district” where the crime committed?

I’d think this should be thrown out altogether. Florida and Palm wouldn’t indict, imho.
DC would indict Trump for stealing cheese from the moon.

Re: "This is kinda large"

Have you read about the indicted Trump employee who has flipped and will testify against Trump and at least one other employee?

Apparently, that flip took place in secret, AFTER the initial Washington D.C. indictments came down.

The Flipper was originally represented by a donation funded Trump lawyer. After he flipped, prosecutor Smith, in secret, personally assigned a public defender to the Flipper.

The original lawyer has filed a complaint with Florida federal Judge Cannon.

The original lawyer says that prosecutor Smith's conduct is so outrageous that Judge Cannon must bar the Flipper from testifying at trial, and that all statements the Flipper made to the D.C. Grand Jury must be permanently sealed.

Salon.com - a Hard Left news website - has completely freaked out after this turn of events. They published an anti-Judge Cannon propaganda piece yesterday, which praises prosecutor Smith and demands that Judge Cannon be removed from the case.
